Table of contents

But by the latter half of the outlook was bleak for the British. In August Montcalm returned with a large army and captured and burned Fort William Henry, following which the Indians massacred British and colonial prisoners. He increased the number of troops in North America and sent in several strong military leaders.

The British suffered severe casualties at Ticonderoga, but were more successful at Frontenac. Both Montcalm and Wolfe were killed in the battle, but it was a victory for the British. The French colonial government fled in May to the unfortified city of Montreal, where General Jeffrey Amherst arranged to have converge three armies. The French suffered from a lack of supplies and reinforcements caused mostly by a British blockade but in part by the relative apathy of the government in France.

When the Treaty of Paris was signed on February 8, , Britain was left with all of French Canada, with the exception of two small islands, most of French Louisiana east of the Mississippi River, and a small part of Spanish Florida. The French were allowed to maintain a high degree of autonomy, but the treaty left the British dominant in North America east of the Mississippi River.

Although this collection consists primarily of materials created during the French and Indian War, there are in nearly every series some materials from the preceding King George's War. There are enlistments and impressments, muster rolls and account rolls of those serving in the war. There are also several receipts for wages paid by Trumbull.

Numerous accounts and receipts provide information about how much money was spent on specific food items and alcohol, guns, blankets, and the shoeing of horses. There are details of military orders; correspondence concerning intelligence including concern over reports that the French were making snow shoes and orders as well as letters to family. Finally, there are journals kept by men involved in the French and Indian War, an orderly book from Ticonderoga and a note book with color sketches and examples of various styles of penmanship. Materials are organized into five series based largely on form: Enlisted Men, Finances, Orders, Correspondence, and Journals.

Series I: Enlisted Men consists of impressments and voluntary enlistments, with a few documents regarding desertion or discharge due to illness or family emergency.
